UTHSC

Emergency Medicine Interest Group

The Emergency Medicine Interest Group (EMIG) at UT is a new re-established student
led, faculty supported organization dedicated to expose students to the field of Emergency
Medicine. The group conducts meetings, conferences, and special activities throughout
the year to improve the knowledge base and skill set needed for EM. Furthermore, the
EMIG focuses to connect students with EM doctors in the field for hands on exposure.
At some point in their education, every medical student will have contact with the
Emergency Department. The activities held by the EMIG are geared to help students
prepare and excel in situations that they are likely to encounter throughout their
time at UT.

The EMIG will have an exposition at each New Student Orientation week to recruit new
members. In order to be up-to-date on all our events, please register with our listserv.
